Plum Creek Wind Project Final Environmental Impact Statement Plum Creek Wind Project Final Environmental Impact Statement The Human and Environmental Impacts of Constructing and Operating a 414 MW Wind Farm and Associated 345 kV Transmission Project April 2021 eDocket Nos. IP-6997/CN-18-699; IP-6997/WS-18-700; and IP-6997/TL-18-701 Abstract Responsible Government Unit Project Applicant Minnesota Department of Commerce Plum Creek Wind Farm, LLC Energy Environmental Review and 8400 Normandale Lake Blvd Analysis Suite 1200 85 7th Place East, Suite 280 Bloomington, MN 55437 Saint Paul, MN 55101 Department Representative Project Representatives William Cole Storm Melissa Schmit Environmental Review Manager Jenny Monson-Miller 651-539-1844 952-988-9000 [email protected] [email protected] Plum Creek Wind Farm, LLC (Plum Creek or Applicant) is proposing to build a 414-megawatt wind farm in Cottonwood, Murray, and Redwood Counties in southwest Minnesota. The applicant is also proposing to build approximately 30-mile long 345-kilovolt high-voltage transmission line to connect the wind farm to the electric grid. Plum Creek anticipates that construction will take approximately 12 months to complete, and the project will be in- service in late 2022. In order to build the project, Plum Creek must obtain three approvals from the Public Utilities Commission (Commission): a certificate of need (CN) for the project as a whole, a site permit for the wind farm, and a route permit for the transmission line. The purpose of this environmental impact statement (EIS) is to provide information the Commission needs to make these permit decisions. This final EIS addresses the issues and mitigation measures identified in the Department’s scoping decision of November 4, 2020 and reflects comments received on draft EIS (January 11, 2021). It evaluates the potential human and environmental impacts of the proposed Plum Creek Wind Project and possible mitigation measures including transmission line route, route segment, and alignment alternatives. Additional materials related to this project and its permitting proceedings are available on the Department’s website: http://mn.gov/commerce/energyfacilities and on the State of Minnesota’s eDockets system: https://www.edockets.state.mn.us/EFiling/search.jsp (enter the year “18” and the number “699,” “700,”or “701”). Persons interested in receiving future notices about this project can place their names on the project mailing list by contacting [email protected] or 651-201-2246 and providing the docket number (18-699, 18-700, or 18-701), their name, email address, and mailing address. Please indicate how you would like to receive notices – by email or U.S. mail. This document can be made available in alternative formats (i.e., large print or audio) by calling 651- 539- 1530 (voice).

The Applicant is also proposing to build an approximately 310-mile long 345-kilovolt (kV) high-voltage transmission line (HVTL) to connect the wind farm to the electric grid. Plum Creek anticipates that construction will take approximately 12 months to complete, and the project will be in- service in late 2022. In order to build the project, Plum Creek must obtain three approvals from the Public Utilities Commission (Commission): a certificate of need (CN) for the project as a whole, a site permit for the wind farm, and a route permit for the transmission line. The purpose of this environmental impact statement (EIS) is to provide information the Commission needs to make these permit decisions. This EIS evaluates alternatives to the project itself. It also evaluates the potential human and environmental impacts of the proposed project and possible mitigation measures including transmission line route, route segment, and alignment alternatives. This EIS is not a decision-making document, but rather serves as a guide for decision makers. Project The Plum Creek Wind Project consists of two parts – a wind farm and a transmission line that connects the wind farm to the electrical grid: • Wind Farm: The proposed 414 MW wind farm consists of up to 74 turbines to be located within an area of approximately 73,085 acres (the site). Plum Creek anticipates that the wind farm would consist of wind turbines with rated nameplate power outputs ranging from 5.6 MW (Vestas V162) to 6.2 MW (Siemens Gamesa SG170), corresponding to between 67 and 74 wind turbines at the site. The wind farm also includes underground electric collection lines, an operation and maintenance building, permanent meteorological towers, and gravel access roads. • Transmission Project: Plum Creek proposes to construct a HVTL that will connect the wind farm’s Collector Substations to a proposed Switching Station at the existing Brookings to Hampton 345 kV transmission line, approximately 26 miles north of the Plum Creek site. Plum Creek proposed two possible routes for the transmission line (Blue and Red Routes) from the wind farm to the Switching Station and two routes (Yellow and Green Routes) to connect the wind farm’s Collector Substations together. Plum Creek is an independent power producer; the power generated by the Project will be offered for sale to wholesale customers, including Minnesota utilities and cooperatives, and commercial and Summary Plum Creek Wind Project – Final Environmental Impact Statement |ES 1 Executive Summary _____________________________________________________________________________________ industrial customers that have identified a need for additional renewable energy or set clean energy goals. State of Minnesota’s Role In addition to the three approvals from the Commission, the Applicant also requires approvals (permits, licenses) from other state agencies and federal agencies with permitting authority

    Minnesota Emergency Alert System Statewide Plan 2016 MINNESOTA EAS STATEWIDE PLAN Revision 9 Basic Plan 11/9/2016 I. REASON FOR PLAN The State of Minnesota is subject to major emergencies and disasters, natural, technological and criminal, which can pose a significant threat to the health and safety of the public. The ability to provide citizens with timely emergency information is a priority of emergency managers statewide. The Emergency Alert System (EAS) was developed by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) to provide emergency information to the public via television, radio, cable systems and wire line providers. The Integrated Public Alert and Warning System, (IPAWS) was created by FEMA to aid in the distribution of emergency messaging to the public via the internet and mobile devices. It is intended that the EAS combined with IPAWS be capable of alerting the general public reliably and effectively. This plan was written to explain who can originate EAS alerts and how and under what circumstances these alerts are distributed via the EAS and IPAWS. II. PURPOSE AND OBJECTIVES OF PLAN A. Purpose When emergencies and disasters occur, rapid and effective dissemination of essential information can significantly help to reduce loss of life and property. The EAS and IPAWS were designed to provide this type of information. However; these systems will only work through a coordinated effort. The purpose of this plan is to establish a standardized, integrated EAS & IPAWS communications protocol capable of facilitating the rapid dissemination of emergency information to the public. B. Objectives 1. Describe the EAS administrative structure within Minnesota. (See Section V) 2.
